[QUOTE="MW204, post: 2582092, member: 118876"] It was the first time I ever went bear hunting and I was invited by the man who drug the dog back over my son so he could shoot the bear, btw it was my son's first bear also. When I said I almost got to shoot the bear the reason I know that is because they have tracking collars on the dogs and they were heading straight for us, Brian handed me a 30-30 and said when the bear comes across the forest road shoot him in the shoulder. The dogs got within 75 yds of me, idk how far ahead the bear was ahead of them, but the bear turn off and started running off at a 45-degree angle from us. Brian said let's go, I could not run from being an old a** who had a bum knee, but Brian and my son took off. When I got to the edge of where the forest road intersected with another forest road I saw the white pickup, hurried as fast as I could that way, I went about 20-30 feet when I heard the shot. I never heard the second shot, idk if they made a second shot, if they did it was muffled from being so close to the bear and the thick timber they were in. They put the 4 dogs on the tailgate and stitched them up and then in the dog box, their tradition is to leave a dog that dies in the woods where it dies, and took the one to the vet. We drug the bear out, loaded it up on top of the dog box, and then went after more bears. Got 3 total that morning. [/QUOTE]
